Aims. The catalog of Stars With ExoplanETs (SWEET-Cat) was originally introduced in 2013. Since then many more exoplanets have been confirmed, increasing significantly the number host stars listed there. A crucial step toward a comprehensive understanding these new worlds is precise and homogeneous characterization their stars. Better spectroscopic stellar parameters along with results from Gai...

Introduction: This study evaluated the effects of pretreatments with melatonin (MT), and Alpha Lipoic acid (ALA) on lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) -induced serum levels of creatinine (Cr), urea (U), uric acid (Ua) and kidney levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH) and catalase (CAT) in male albino rats. Effects of treatments with MT and ALA were also evaluate...

A man killed his wife and their shared household cats before killing himself. The combination of the killing (suicide or homicide) of a family member and the pet is seen on occasions in forensic pathology. The purpose of this case report is to provide a comparison of the killing methods of animals, ill pets and of household animals, also in extended suicides or homicides given the initially out...

background: the purpose of the present study was to assess the efficiency of ultrasound/hydrogen peroxide processes and ultrasound/hydrogen peroxide/zno nanoparticles in the removal of blue cat 41 dye from aqueous solutions. methods: zno nanoparticles were prepared using the hydrothermal method. variables including ph, concentration of zno nanoparticles, initial dye concentration, concentration...

the effect of salinity was assessed on the activity of some major antioxidant enzymes i.e., superoxide dismutase (sod), peroxidase (pod), catalase (cat), in the seedlings’ roots or shoots of three winter canola (brassica napus l.) cultivars, colvert (tolerant), symbol (semi tolerant) and agat (susceptible). seedlings were treated with 0 (control), 50, 100 and 150 mm nacl for 24 h in hydropoic c...

Linguatula serrata is a tongue-shaped parasite that infects carnivores or insectivorous reptile as final host and herbivores as intermediate ones. During necropsy of a 1.5-year-old female stray cat, a few white and fine nodules were observed on the diaphragmatic lobes of the lung. In histopathological examination, the nodules contained a turned spinosum parasite with cuticular spines and in par...

in this paper we derive convergence theorems for an -nonexpansive mappingof a nonempty closed and convex subset of a complete cat(0) space for sp-iterative process and thianwan's iterative process.
